U-GOD RELEASES NEW VIDEO FOR SKYSCRAPER

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utjcxMRcwgw

KEYNOTE SPEAKER, Executive Produced by RZA, is a 17-track (plus 2 bonus tracks) release that gives the fans more for their money with features from Clan members Inspectah Deck, Method Man, GZA, and Raekwon, in addition to well-respected artists such as Styles P, Kool Keith, Jackpot Scotty Wotty, and Elzhi. RZA produced three songs while the rest of the production was done by up and coming producers.

Hiphopdx says of KEYNOTE SPEAKER: Kicking the proceedings off with the title track, [U-God] uses his signature deep, gravely voice and flow to ride a horn and percussion-heavy beat that makes for a genuine head nodder, automatically reminiscent of old school Wu-Tang in their hey day.

As a member of the iconic Hip Hop group, WU-TANG, U-GOD has enjoyed platinum success with The Clan and was the first Wu-Tang member to snag a gold release as a soloist.

In a recent review of KEYNOTE SPEAKER, The Examiner states that Truth be told, Baby U has destroyed more than his fair share of Clan classics like 'Pinky Ring', 'Bells of War', 'Wolves', and 'Triumph'. This holds true as many of U-God's hooks are the most memorable on Clan records.

U-GOD (short for Universal God of Law) as a member of Wu-Tang has sold tens of millions of records worldwide. U-God was first featured on Enter the Wu-Tang (36 Chambers), on the group's debut single "Protect Your Neck" as well as the now-famous opening verse of "Da Mystery of Chessboxin'." Throughout U-God's career he has been known to his fans for his rugged flow and bass-like voice on WU tracks such as "Winter Warz," "Knuckleheadz," "Investigative Reports," and "Black Jesus." U-God released his first solo album, Golden Arm Redemption, in 1999 on Priority Records that featured two singles in "Dat's Gangsta" and "Bizarre." The song"Rumble" was used as the main song for the video game, "Wu-Tang: Shaolin Style.""Bizarre" debuted in Top 10 (#7) on "Billboard 100" and U-God became the first WU member to have a solo album debut #1 on Billboard. The album reached Gold status. Almost ten years later, in 2009, U-God independently released his rebirth album, Dopium, on FrankRadio/Baby Grande receiving 4.5 out of 5 stars by I-tunes. The video for the lead single, "WUTANG," currently has over 4 million views on Youtube.
